Born on Dec. 20, 1933, to Irma and Gene Huntress, she grew up in Farmington, a place she held close to her heart her entire life. She often told stories of roller skating at Alton Bay, antics with her brothers, riding motorcycles and barn dancing.

Married to Richard I. Morrill, she became a devoted mother and wife, giving care and joy to those she knew best. Everyday family events were the fabric of who she was — playing cribbage and sharing in laughter was a part of her everyday life. Her selfless devotion to family, friends and neighbors made her like a mother or grandmother to many. She will be missed.
